We are so proud to announce that the lovely, intelligent, and beautiful RUBY recently met all requirements for the AKC Junior Hunter title!  Affectionately referred to as "Scooby's Ruby" or "Ruby Rose" she was handled to her JH title recently by her owner, Roger G. at a hunt test in Connecticut.  Last year in 2013 Ruby's owners wanted to surprise me by preparing her for her testing and actually didn't tell me anything about it until AFTER she had won her very first qualifying scores! I love surprises like that and was very very proud and happy when hearing of the news.  It was really a joy last fall too when Ruby, Marilyn, and Roger made the trip up to a hunt test in New Hampshire where we were also testing some of our dogs. As a matter of fact it was like an ATB family reunion that gorgeous fall day when we had many Brittany dogs there testing from our program.  Not only was it a reunion of dogs, but it was also awesome to see new friendships develop among the ATB family. All that were there received qualifying scores at their respective testing level, several Junior Hunters finished and it was a great celebration when BULLET finished his SENIOR TITLE!   The Brittany club that John and I belong to recently had a pointing dog training day here in Maine.  Roger & Marilyn brought Ruby up to it in preparation of her next hunt test which was scheduled for the next day.  It proved to be quite beneficial for Miss Ruby whose qualifying scores earned her a final leg towards her AKC Junior Hunter title! As a side note, Miss Ruby is also now a 'big sister' to 3 1/2 month old "Ammo" (Bullet/Thistle).  Congratulations Roger, Marilyn, and of course Miss Ruby - we are so very very proud of you all  - keep up the good work!

As always, God bless you and yours.  John, Ann & All Things Brittany
